This is a section about gaming on
the PC. I don't play on consoles or
tablets or phones, because I'm a true member of the PC Master Race, and an adult. Some might comment that anyone
who plays computer games can't be
an
adult, but I disagree. Take a good look and what you do for recreation,
then try to tell me why that is a suitable pursuit for adults, where
you think gaming is not? Football? Watching twenty-two millionaires
wreck a lawn, to quote someone or other. I might have a little more
respect for your view if you actually play, but is all you do is stand
around shouting random nonsense then I have little. If you play, then why
is is to adult to kick a piece of inflated rubber covered in pig-skin
about? At the end of the day, the vast majority of leisure activities
are as meaningless and juvenile as each other. So I will continue to
defend gaming as certainly no worse than many other pastimes, and a lot
better than many.
But
that said, I believe that all the most serious and cutting edge work -
at least technically - is being done on a PC. Sadly though, I suspect
that gaming on PCs is stuck in a technical rut, and if anything is
going to go backwards as people migrate to things like tablets and
phones. The limitations of these pieces of hardware will limit what
games to run on them can do, and if enough people leave PCs to play
with fondleslabs (©The Register) then developers will
give up on the Big Boys format.
